Mrs. Brown was the wife of Rev. Slater Brown,
and sister Of the Rev. J. Whitaker, of the
Baptist church, of Cambridge, O. She was
aged about 6S years. The deceased was a Ia
dy of most excellent christian and social char
acter, and her death is lamented by large
circle of friends. The funeral arrangements
were in the hands of B. R. Johnston, and brief
addresses were made by Revs. Alexander, Of
St. Clairsville, and Murphy,o Pleasant Grove.
The casket contained beautiful flowers, and
loving hands had done all that could be done
to array the body for the tomb. As more ex-

our friendship for one who had proved to US
